Today felt like a rollercoaster 🎢. On the one hand, I woke up with cramps, reminding me that my body is still processing this cycle. On the other hand, I felt a small flicker of hope again as I started planning for the future. I think the hardest part of trying to conceive is balancing the constant anticipation with the reality of setbacks. Every month feels like a fresh start, but also a reminder of what didn’t happen.
I spoke with a close friend who has been on a similar journey, and it helped so much to hear her say, “This is part of the process. Don’t be too hard on yourself.” It’s strange how we can feel like we’re failing even when we know logically that this is normal. Her advice? Don’t focus on the months you’re not pregnant; focus on how strong your body is for keeping you healthy enough to try again next month. 💪 I really needed that.
My husband and I spent the evening talking about baby names – yes, I know we’re not pregnant yet, but it’s still exciting to imagine. It helps us stay connected and hopeful. He loves the name Emma for a girl, and I’m leaning towards Noah for a boy. It feels good to dream about the future even though we’re still waiting. 🌸
